8 cabaret acts, 1 murder mystery
It’s an evening filled with absolutely talented murderous lunatics that you really don’t want to miss out on: From aerial artists and pole performers, to burlesque, juggling, fire dancers, acrobatics, and comedy to cunning murderous circus freaks that will do anything to convince you, the jury, of their innocence.
Mid-show, someone in the cabaret dies and it's up to YOU to send one of these murderous freaks to jail....
We also partner with independent stalls selling and showcasing their artwork on the night, and there will be snacks, cocktails and other funky things available on the night as well.
Where possible we will update our listings to notify of cancelled, postponed and rescheduled events, however we STRONGLY ADVISE that you check with the venue/organiser in the first instance for updates.
